Executive summary: A new report from Faunalytics reveals promising opportunities for collaboration between animal protection organizations and environmental groups, with many environmental organizations open to or already working with animal advocates, especially on legal advocacy, education, and promoting plant-based diets.
Key points:
Many environmental organizations, particularly those focused on conservation, sustainability, and deforestation, are receptive to collaborating with animal advocacy groups.
Key areas for collaboration include legal action, policy development, public education on the intersection of animal and environmental issues, and promoting sustainable plant-based diets.
Challenges may arise from differing views, strategies, and messaging preferences between the two movements.
Collaboration can provide mutual benefits, such as shared resources, knowledge, networks, and funding opportunities.
Alignment of values, interests, audience, and advocacy tactics is crucial for successful partnerships.
High-priority countries for farmed animal advocacy, such as China, the U.S., and Brazil, are also the world’s top greenhouse gas emitters, highlighting the interconnectedness of animal agriculture and environmental issues.
